Mantle is at 300K after about five minutes. Same two bidders bidding it up as the Plank, interestingly.

3 years ago, a PSA 8 52 MM was around $80k, wow.

Wagner, similar huge increase...but...

The Plank however, has been flat for 20 years, no huge spike.

PWCC is getting a tremendous number of quality consignments, and a lot of "the big boys" are becoming well aware of it. The Mantle is in line with recent sales from what I would have thought were better known auction houses.

Best,
